Stanley's Music Listicle - 2026 Jan
This is a bit early you might be thinking. It's not. My relase playlist is almost 200 songs and my review for inclusion in the top ten is almost 60 songs long.
These might not all be new songs but they appeared on Youtube at some point in the last few weeks. Anything released between now and Feb has probably missed it's chance.
